Abstract
This chapter describes an investigation into exploring meaning making through multimodal literacy practices and technology integration for teacher education within the context of an online, secondary reading course for K-12 teachers. Through the use of a collaborative conference protocol, discourse with cross-disciplinary critical friends, and visual thinking data analysis strategies, a teacher educator examined existing multimodal literacy practices and then studied course redesign and technology integration. Results include recognizing opportunities for diverse learners to access and use prior knowledge in the construction of new knowledge, reframing the course delivery platform as a multimodal “text,” increasing opportunity for learners to construct and communicate complex understandings through multimodal texts and technology-infused assessments, and learners' curriculum making through transmediation mediated by technology.

Historic Perspective of Log Analysis
A two-item set consisting of a query and a response, in which the IR system contributes either the query or the response and in which the response may be null. This definition allows human-to-machine, machine-to-human, and machin-to-machine transactions. It also allows for unanswered queries. (Peters, et al 1993, p. 39)

Culturally Significant Learning in an Online Children's Literature Class: Transformations and Transactions
Transaction involves the merging of two or more entities to create new meaning. According to Rosenblatt’s transactional reader response theory, the reader brings meaning (based in experience) to a text and takes meaning from that text, resulting in a unique construction—what Rosenblatt calls the “poem”—for each reading. Unlike interaction, which simply involves the meeting of two entities, transaction involves overlap and change.

Knowledge Transactions in Mobile Environments
Is a collection of operations on the physical, abstract application states or databases that must be executed atomically, either all operations are performed or none are. A transaction can be considered as a collection of actions with the ACID properties - Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, Durability. Where 0 = m = n, and each Li is a literal. In the body of rule (I), both classical negation ¬ and weak negation not are allowed to be presented. The extended logic program can include explicit negative information.
